President's Message

My Message to You

Whether you Give, Advocate or Volunteer, when you partner with the United Way of Forsyth County you become a part of an exciting movement that advances the common good in our community.

At United Way, we utilize a strategic approach and volunteer-led community assessments to leverage your dollars and stretch them further than you ever could as an individual donor. Simply put, we have a phenomenal process of sharing resources that allow all of us to Live United.

The United Way can not impact every issue so we’re focusing on education, income and health which are the fundamental building blocks for a successful life.

We also have an extraordinary capacity to provide exceptional leadership to our community by convening the right people at the right time to address the right issues. The result; We have a proven track record of reaching across issues, agencies, age, ethnicity and other factors to bring the brightest minds together to create the best solutions.

Live United is not a campaign, it’s a decision to make helping others an everyday part of your life. Now is your time to Live United and be a part of something that matters. Give financially, spread the word or share your time and play the unique role that only you can play.

The results will convince you to believe.

President and Chief Executive Officer
